The Beauty of “Incompetence”
As a pastor—and in many other roles—I have often felt underqualified, overwhelmed, awkward, and incompetent. Perhaps you have had similar experiences.
Those feelings can quickly become spiritually corrosive. Insecurity turns into bitterness. A lack of recognition feels like disrespect. Another person’s success awakens jealousy. Discouragement becomes depression, and honest self-awareness hardens into relentless self-criticism.
Eventually, fear can keep us from releasing the very gifts God has entrusted to us.
Yet Scripture offers a surprising vision of our inadequacy: weakness is not merely an obstacle God must overcome. It can become the very place where God’s grace is most clearly revealed.
Paul pleaded for his “thorn” to be removed, but Christ answered, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). God did not tell Paul that his weakness was imaginary. Nor did God promise that faithful people would always feel capable. Instead, God promised that divine strength could inhabit human frailty.
This is the beauty of incompetence—not that incompetence itself is virtuous, or that we should resist learning and growth, but that our limitations can free us from the illusion of self-sufficiency. We do not need to be everything. We were never meant to be everything.
The image of the body of Christ makes this especially clear. An eye cannot resent the hand for being able to grasp. A hand cannot despise the foot because it travels farther. Nor can one part say to another, “I don’t need you.” Every member is limited, and every member is necessary. Our limitations are part of what draws us into dependence upon one another.
Sometimes I feel incompetent because I am comparing my gift with someone else’s. At other times, I may genuinely be trying to perform a role for which another member of the body is better equipped. In either case, the answer is not self-hatred. It is humility: understanding my place, recognizing the gifts of others, learning where growth is needed, and allowing Christ to coordinate his body.
My weakness does not excuse irresponsibility. I should still prepare, learn, seek counsel, repent when necessary, and develop the gifts I have been given. But faithful preparation is different from trying to prove my worth. I do not serve so that I can become valuable. I serve because, in Christ, I am already loved—and because grace has given me something particular to contribute.
Perhaps the gifts buried beneath our self-criticism are not waiting for us to become impressive. Perhaps they are waiting for us to trust God enough to offer them imperfectly.
God has always worked through unlikely people: Moses, who protested that he could not speak well; Gideon, who considered himself the least; Jeremiah, who believed he was too young; Peter, who repeatedly misunderstood and failed Christ’s teachings; and Paul, whose ministry displayed both remarkable power and profound weakness. Each of these people’s usefulness did not rest on personal adequacy but on God’s presence.
The church does not need us to become flawless. It needs us to be available—honest about our weaknesses, willing to grow, ready to receive help, and courageous enough to offer what God has placed within us.
I may sometimes feel underqualified, overwhelmed, or awkward. But that does not mean that I am therefore unusable. My limitations can become an invitation: to rely on grace, to honor the rest of Christ’s body, and to discover that God’s power is often most beautiful where and when human strength runs out.

Why It's Easier To Tear People Down
Let's break down why belittling others feels easier than genuine support. Why and how rooting for people is a skill you can actually build.

By late Thursday, the admin informed the court that it wouldn’t proceed with changes at the #KennedyCenter before Oct 8 to allow Judge Cooper more time to consider the case.
…Cooper ruled in May that Trump’s name was added to the building illegally, ordering it to be removed.
#Trump & his allies, however, have refused to let that be the final word.

Mayers responded that the timeline was in accordance with a vote earlier this month by the #Trump aligned board. As he returned to his arguments that renovations at the #KennedyCenter require energy & talent, Cooper interjected again.
“That’s all fine & good,” the judge said. “What does that have to do with what #Congress intended in these statutes? That’s really what’s before me.”

Just seconds after the Trump admin’s lawyer, Brantley Mayers, began making his case at a nearly 2-hour hearing, US District Court Judge Christopher Cooper interrupted to ask why the center needed to begin inscribing Trump’s name on the institution’s facade as soon as Sept 8.
“What’s magic about that date?” Cooper asked….

If we only wanted to be happy, it would be easy; but we want to be happier than other people, which is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.
[Si on ne vouloit qu’être heureux, cela seroit bientôt fait; mais on veut être plus heureux que les autres; et cela est presque toujours difficile, parce que nous croyons les autres plus heureux qu’ils ne sont.]Charles-Lewis de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755) French political philosopher

Set me as a seal upon thine heart,
as a seal upon thine arm:
for love is strong as death;
jealousy is cruel as the grave:
the coals thereof are coals of fire,
which hath a most vehement flame.
Many waters cannot quench love,
neither can the floods drown it:
if a man would give all the substance of his house for love,
it would utterly be contemned.

Took my dog to the vet. She was being her usual mellow elder lady self.
And then I couldn’t resist patting an absolute doofus of a golden retriever.
She growled at him, then she growled at him for walking past and then she growled at him for sitting over on the other side of the waiting room.
And after seeing the vet, she growled at two new dogs in the waiting room for good measure.
Message VERY received, girl 😂

#PennedPossibilities 974 — Does your MC become jealous? If so, to what degree? How does their jealousy manifest?
Jealousy is something taught in our society.
Read that again.
Nobody ever teaches that jealousy is in any wise good in Bolt's society. It's mentioned as a pathology in Men's Studies, and men taught to recognize that pathology will send people to Health Services if they recognize it.
Bolt has felt envy, when she's seen a woman get a man she was eying.
She's not entirely happy in one scene in Reluctant Courier (for the Mob) when she finds her friend Blue entertaining a pair of women. It's too hard to explain the nuances here, but it's a normal occurrence related to what people in their world call a "man's duty." Calling Blue a part-time geisha hints at the situation, but is not really close. He, however, recognizes that's Bolt has had a bad day (she has them fairly often, working for the mob) and really needs friendly (and also intimate) consoling. She's not up to sharing right then. Blue pawns off the two women on another guy in the association he lives at.
Bolt isn't jealous. That's not the emotion. There is no anger, simply disappointment. Bolt and Blue are completely human, but the society is subtly, but sometimes in your face, alien in ways we can't grasp thanks to our enculturation and gender roles.

There is too much criticism and cynicism in the world, especially on social media, either from jealousy, ignorance, boredom, all the above or something else. The world would be a better place without it, certainly less of it. #critisicm #jealousy #boredom #ignorance

In an era of viral clips and "subscriber counts," it’s easy to turn the Gospel into a competition. Paul faced rivals who tried to exploit his imprisonment, but his reaction might surprise you.

A quotation from Samuel Johnson
Yet it is certain, likewise, that many of our miseries are merely comparative: we are often made unhappy, not by the presence of any real evil, but by the absence of some fictitious good; of something which is not required by any real want of nature, which has not in itself any power of gratification, and which neither reason nor fancy would have prompted us to wish, did we not see it in the possession of others.
Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic

Nothing is to be done out of jealousy or vanity; instead, out of humility of mind everyone should give preference to others, everyone pursuing not selfish interests but those of others.
[μηδὲν κατ᾽ ἐριθείαν μηδὲ κατὰ κενοδοξίαν ἀλλὰ τῇ ταπεινοφροσύνῃ ἀλλήλους ἡγούμενοι ὑπερέχοντας ἑαυτῶν, μὴ τὰ ἑαυτῶν ἕκαστος σκοποῦντες ἀλλὰ [καὶ] τὰ ἑτέρων ἕκαστοι.]The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture

Watched the film "Closer" last night.
We need to denormalize the idea that love doesn't involve actually being nice to the loved one.
I mean COME ON.
At one point one of the (annoying and deeply sexually insecure) men asks a woman he supposedly loves "What do you expect me to do?" and she says "Understand?". But it's obvious he's not going to, because he's jealous and selfish and doesn't seem to like her especially.
That's dumb. I guess couples who are kind and understanding to each other and tolerate mistakes, don't make for such interesting plots. BUT WHAT ARE WE TEACHING THE CHILDREN?
(I'm also team "Jane did not have the sex with Larry, he was lying and she 'admitted' it because Dan wouldn't accept any other answer." Also wow Natalie Portman is small!)
